Civil Engineering is a Professional Engineering discipline and it is the Mother branch of Engineering that deals with the design, construction and maintenance of the physical and naturally built environment, including works such as bridges, roads, canals, dams and buildings. It is traditionally broken into several sub-disciplines including Environmental Engineering, Geotechnical Engineering, Structural Engineering, Transportation Engineering, Water Resources Engineering, Materials Engineering, Coastal Engineering, Surveying, and Construction Engineering.

The course outline of civil field programmes gives the fundamental knowledge and flexibility as it has different types of work to do like designing, surveying and maintaining a structure, as well as it provides a better future for civil engineers. The purpose of this course is to make students learn to natural resources with preventing the environment.The principle educational objective of our department is to provide the students with fundamental and high tech knowledge and the skills needed to resolve the problems related to construction and maintenance of infrastructure in harmony with the society and environment.

Mission

The department of civil engineering efforts will be dedicated to formulate and implement high quality education in civil engineering, to promote innovative and original thoughts in the minds of civil engineers to face the future challenges, technology, research and consultancy with global linkages.

Vision

To build young Technocrats by imparting their technical knowledge in the field of civil engineering, by laying the foundation for future engineers, who can meet the demands of industry and community effectively in all part of civil works and to make significant contribution in the economic development of the state, region and nation.

Program Educational Objective

To educate the graduates with the basic and advanced knowledge in civil Engineering and to apply the fundamentals of Mathematics, Science, Management and computing in engineering principles.

To motivate themselves in getting engineering position and practice with structural design, construction industries in private and government sectors at the national and international levels.

To succeed and prepare the civil Engineering graduates in lifelong independent learning and work effectively on team based projects to become good entrepreneurs and conduct themselves ethically, socially in their professional environment.

About

The Structural Analysis Lab facilitates in the determination of the effects of loads on physical structures and their components. Results of the analysis are used to verify a structure’s fitness for use.

Transportation lab consists of equipment used in the testing of bituminous materials such as viscosity, ductility and plasticity and other devices for testing of bitumen and aggregates. There are other devices for mix design Marshall Methods.

For studying hydraulics and hydraulic Machines, one need to understand concepts, which can be easily taught and understood by proper laboratory dedicated to this subject. In our college we have enough numbers of experimental set up which will help students to strengthen their hydraulics’ concepts.

CAD Lab

Lab Incharge : Miss Abhigna Bhatt

About

In today’s era having knowledge of computer application is very necessary. Same is applicable in the field of civil engineering. Here they get hands on experience in AutoCAD. They will be taught 2D and 3D civil engineering drawings.

Industrial Visit to Vishnugad Hydro Power Project, THDC, Pipalkoti

Industrial Visit to Dam site of Vishnugad Hydro Power Project, THDC, Pipalkoti

A educational trip was organized by Civil Engineering Department in coordination with internship cell on 10 & 11 March, 2018 to Dam site of Vishnugad Hydro Power Project, THDC, Pipalkoti. Group of 30 students accompanied by 2 faculties (Mr. Sumit Juyal & Mr. Ved Prakash) visited the on day 1. On day 2 students were accompanied by Mr. Lalit Kumar and Mr. Abhishek Agrawal. At the dam site these groups were briefed about the construction work and state of art practices in Dam and Tunnel construction by Mr. Hardev Pant (Sr. Manager) and Mr. Girdhari Lal (Manager) of THDC.
